CANFIN TERMS & CONDITIONS
 
1. The property known as CanFin is offered for holiday rental subject to confirmation by Michelle Cannon & John Findlay. The client understands that the latter reserve the right to ask clients to vacate the premises if the clients are in serious breach of the conditions. Arrival time is from 4pm on holiday start date, departure time by 10am.

2. As the property is not detached, the client agrees not to act in any way which would cause disturbance to residents in neighbouring properties: a) parties are not allowed b) music should not be played between the hours of midnight and 8am c) all other noise should be kept to a minimum between the hours of midnight and 8am - inside and outside the property as well as on the pool terrace. Residents of the neighbouring properties will notify us and may call the police if the house rules are not respected and any fines may be passed on to you.

3. To reserve the property, the client should complete and sign the booking form and return it together with payment of the initial non-refundable deposit (20% of the total rent due). Cheques are to be made payable to CANFIN, though bank transfer preferred. Following receipt of the booking form and deposit, the owners will send confirmation. This is the formal acceptance of the booking.

4. The balance of the rent together with the breakage deposit (see clause 5) is payable not less than twelve weeks before the start of the rental period. If payment is not received by the due date, the owners reserve the right to give notice in writing that the reservation is cancelled. The client will remain liable to pay the balance of the rent unless the owners are able to re-let the property. Reservations made within twelve weeks of the start of the rental period require full payment at the time of booking.

5. A breakage deposit payment of £600 (900 euros) is required via bank transfer when the balance (or full amount) is due. We reserve the right to deduct monies for: any losses, breakages, stained bed linen or damage caused to the property during your stay; any fines that may be incurred as a result of disturbances reported by neighbouring properties; any extra cleaning costs (clause 8); and if the number of occupants exceeds that which is advertised (clause 7). The sum reserved by this clause shall not limit the client's liability to the owners. Minor damages such as a chipped cup will not normally be charged for, but you should replace any small damages before your departure. After your departure the house will be checked and in the event of any breakage/damage or failure to return keys, the relevant amount will be deducted from the breakage deposit and the balance returned to you within two weeks of the end of the rental period via bank transfer.

6. Subject to clauses 3 and 4 above, in the event of a cancellation, refunds of amounts paid will be made if the owner is able to re-let the property, any expenses or losses incurred in so doing will be deducted from the refundable amount. The client is strongly recommended to arrange a comprehensive travel insurance policy (including cancellation cover) and to have full cover for the party's personal belongings, public liability etc, since these are not covered by the owner's insurance.

7. The maximum number to reside in the property must not exceed the advertised capacity.

8. The client agrees to be a considerate tenant and to take good care of the property and to leave it in a clean and tidy condition at the end of the rental period. Although a final clean is included in the rental, the owner reserves the right to make a retention from the breakage deposit to cover additional cleaning costs if the client leaves the property in an unacceptable condition.

9. The client is aware that the tap water is not suitable for drinking, cooking or ironing.

10. The client is aware that in view of the large number of open terraces / balconies, the property may not be suitable for toddlers or young children.

11. The client shall report to the owners without delay any defects in the property or breakdown in the equipment, plant, machinery or appliances in the property, garden or swimming pool. Arrangements for repair and/or replacement will be made as soon as possible.

12. The owner shall not be liable to the client: for any temporary defect or stoppage in the supply of public services to the property, nor in respect of any equipment, plant, machinery or appliance in the property, garden or swimming pool; for any loss, damage or injury which is the result of adverse weather conditions, riot, war, strikes or other matters beyond the control of the owner; for any loss, damage or inconvenience caused to or suffered by the client if the property shall be destroyed or substantially damaged before the start of the rental period and in any such event, the owner shall, within seven days of notification to the client, refund to the client all sums previously paid in respect of the rental period.

13. Under no circumstances shall the owner's liability to the client exceed the amount paid to the owner for the rental period. This contract shall be governed by English law in every particular including formation and interpretation and shall be deemed to have been made in England. Any proceedings arising out of or in connection with this contract may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in England.
